“…The albumin content of cord plasma (4.29 g/100 ml) was intermediate in a range of values from 2.87-4.78 g/100 ml reported for cord blood of normal full-term infants by several authors [1,3,5,10,13].…”

“…The cord oedema in infants of diabetic mothers is more difficult to explain. The level of serum proteins in these infants is not significantly different from that of others of similar gestational age (Davidsen, 1971). It may be that there is some alteration in ground substance which allows fluid to pass out of vessels and holds it in the interstitial space (Muir, 1964).…”

“…It would appear that dynamic changes in the placenta, umbilical cord and fetus occur during vaginal delivery and that all these changes are to the infant's benefit. The serum proteins (Davidsen, 1971 ;Bland, 1972) and IgG (Jones and Payne, 1967) in the cord blood of infants delivered by Caesarean section are lower than those born by vaginal delivery and in elective as distinct from emergency section, serum trypsin inhibitor levels are lower (Kotas et al, 1972). Cassady (1971) found significantly increased total body water in infants delivered abdominally rather than vaginally.…”
